5/23 - soaked in a glass overnight then put them on paper towel. Left for a few days, all popped. Thumbs up to Crop King Seeds (so far!).
5/26 - a bit behind schedule so the tap roots are somewhat long (3/4") and I finally got them in solo cups at the end of the evening. One looks a bit rough in the OG Kush batch- not expecting it'll be happy, but I'll plant it and see - but all the super silver seem good!
5/30 - I feel like the seedlings are getting leggy. Moved them from the Mars Hydro TS 600 tent to the 4x4' with the Phlizon 2020 Pro, hopefully this helps. There's also a Phlizon 1200W LED in the same tent that I have at a separate height / angle for some veggies.
Put in a small old table to raise up the containers so I wasn't always clambering around on the floor (which was ridiculous).
Started some sour diesel today as well, as I'm hedging my bets that I somehow manage to kill off at least a couple of these lil' dudes. pH is still my nemesis!
5 June - 'Lil dudes seem to be coming along OK at week 2 but I noticed the silver haze babies are getting a slight rippled leaf look to them over the last couple days. Assuming pH issues? I put 6.2 and that's what I'm trying to keep at but I'm finding it a bit frustrating - didn't realize that once you pH something and then the water sits for a while it gets all out of whack again. If anyone's using Sunshine #4 and has a recommendation on the exact water pH to tune to before using LMK!
Humidity is high here right now and spiked up to about 80-85% overnight when power flickered and my main fan kicked off so maybe that also? Temp didn't get over 80 with the power issue, so I don't think that's it - though the fluctuations over the last week have been as much as 10 degrees.
This is the stage I got to last time when they were trucking along and then suddenly faltered and I gave up on them when they got weak, stumpy and overall failed to thrive (definitely started with nutes too early and pH was off in the original mix to start). With better medium this time (Sunshine #4) I'm hoping I don't fry them. No nutes yet - could the wrinkling be due to insufficiency in this area? You tell me - I have no idea what I'm doing! 😂
13 June - Going into week 4 technically here but I'm behind on posting so these are some catch-up pictures. This week I didn't water at all - realizing I've been guilty of overwatering like the newbie I am. Zero water, reduced the light a bit (I had it blaringly high) and lowered the tent temp by about 3-4 degrees so it stopped bumping up toward 80 mid-day.
Definitely seeing faster growth and more stable looking colouration since I stopped drowning the poor things. The bottom leaves seem like they're getting a tad darker and might have some wrinkling so I'm guessing I still gave them too many nutrients the last time around.
Should probably water in the next few days but I'm holding off as long as possible... maybe sacrificing getting the nutes balanced sooner by skipping the watering but I think letting them dry out was most important. We'll see!
June 25th - Pistils already after only 4 weeks from germination. Odd! These are photos not autos (apparently). Keeping them on 16/8 for the next 8 weeks and will see what happens. Also emailed CKS about these particular ones - mislabeled/packaged autos?
